ARRESTED THE CHILD.

The daily papers, without comment,
tell of the arrest Of a 'pretty little girl
who was found in an empty house ON
George street with Il man at midnight,
"Oliicer Shields" says the report, "ar-
rested her on Il charge of improper be-
havior"
The oman" was not arrested, itappears
Our very moral code, with mscrutabie
perspicacity, cannot see its way clear To
condemn IA "man' who is a party to Il
child's "improper BEHAVIOR and 20 the
policeman arrests the child, while her
Older and presumably, therefore, more
guilty companion is allowed to go free
to repeat his criminal oilcnao, and per
haps get some other 'prelty little girl
into trouble This, in the "Christian
city of New Haven, under the caves Of
orthudoN Yale.

If thou thy word hast pledged to keep,
Where jewellers are drinking deep,
Or in grave councll~keep thine oath,
Mans honor stands in plighted troth.
Then keep thy word
If thou to thy true love hath said,
"rll come to thee ere day be- dead;
Then though thy troth Ger ice or snow
Ger flood and mountain bid thee 20,
Yet keep thy word.
Or if to Freedom thou hast sworn
To break the chains of folk GorlOrn
Though gallows and "A martyrs death
BE all the need she oiTcreth,
Keep thou thy word,
Yea, trusted troth alone can be
The bond of love and harmony;
For broken vows are blightcd bloom,
Loves sudden death, and friendships
tomb;
Then keep thy word.
Yea, have thou heed thy word to keep,
Though daggers pierce thy bosom deep;
That all thy coward foes in fear
From dying lips thy boast may hear,
81 keep my word.
But have they forced thee crst to swear
Thy whole life long in peace to bear
The yoke of priest and prince and lord --
Then rend i'll twain their thrcciOld cord,
And break Thy word !

THE SOLID PLATFORM.

Labor being the self.evidcnt creator of
all wealth and civilization, it is but
equitable that those who perform all
labor and thus create all wealth y'lould
ENJOY the product of their toll.
But this Is rendered impossible by the
modern system of production. which,
since the discovery of steam power and
since the general introduction of ma
chimes, is in all branches of industry
carried with such gigantic means and
appliances as but few are able to
Possess.
The present Industrial system is CO
operative III n,H respect oHih which is:
That not, a. in former times, the midi
vidual works alone for his own account.

men work together i'll shops, in mines. on
